On the matter of matter in second language education: A “mixed” review of current research
The Modern Language Journal, Volume 109, Issue 4, Page 704-731, Winter 2025.Abstract With the increasing attention provided to sociomaterial and new materialist perspectives in second language (L2) education, this article pursues the question of what these approaches have co‐produced in the existing research. This “mixed” review combines elements of qualitative metasynthesis and diffractive literature review, drawing on ...

Crisis of imagination/(re)imaginations for a (climate) crisis
Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers, Volume 50, Issue 4, December 2025.Abstract This themed intervention emerges from a Chair's Plenary during the Royal Geographical Society (with IBG) Annual Conference 2023 on the theme of ‘Climate Changed Geographies’ and addresses geographers and allied social scientists. Drawing on Amitav Ghosh's provocation, it asks if our work on climate change is facing a crisis of imagination ...

X rays from old open clusters: M 67 and NGC 188 [PDF]
, 1998 We have observed the old open clusters M 67 and NGC 188 with the ROSAT PSPC. In M 67 we detect a variety of X-ray sources. The X-ray emission by a cataclysmic variable, a single hot white dwarf, two contact binaries, and some RS CVn systems is as ...

, 2012 We show that the optical counterpart of the X-ray source CX 1 in M4 is a 20th magnitude star, located in the color-magnitude diagram on (or very close to) the main sequence of the cluster, and exhibiting sinusoidal variations of the flux.

The Photometric Period of the Cataclysmic Variable HV Andromedae
, 2011 We present four nights of time-resolved photometry of the cataclysmic variable star HV And. Our time series analysis has revealed a prominent period at 3.368 +/- 0.060 hours, as well as some low frequency power.

The nautre of dwarf novae and related systems [PDF]
The high energy emissions from cataclysmic variables (interacting binary systems containing an accreting white dwarf) and the relationship of the high energy emission of these stars to their optical properties were investigated.
